Per Edwin's request, this thread was born.

Represent your armwear in this thread.

My latest addition, not to be worn, but simply for a start of a collection:

I also have 4-5 other watches, but they're much cheaper. What do I use daily for time? My cell phone.

I have a couple of other watches, a timex i use for athletic activity, an older fossil which is my daily.

Here you go.

^^ Very nice, Cosmograph Daytona? Those are expensive as hell.

You can easily pay $20k for a Daytona... what year is it?

Edit: Wait, that one is fake. The tips on the end of the hands of a Daytona are slightly pointed, not cut off flat like that. However it's a nice replica though, they matched the minute hand width. Most save production costs and reuse the minute hands off other models, which are much wider.

I don't own a watch. My dad has one rather expensive one he doesn't wear.

Yep its a fake, but a pretty good quality fake. I got it at christmas. my Mom picked it up in Hong Kong, probably didn't cost too much. BTW I leave for HK on friday if anyone wants any decent fakes Let me know and I will see what i can pick up.

Chronograph Citizen "Promaster", purchased in 2000 and have only been used for a total of a few weeks since then. Replaced the battery once after a few years and have given up on putting in more $ for batteries.

Casio "G-Shock" from the early 90's. Survived one divorce, over a decade of serious abuse, and most notably, the burning down of family home in the late 90's. Replaced battery once (only because of fire).

No Harry, you got it wrong, is not about the best watch you have, its about all the watches you have, like put em all in a table or something
